본 논문에서는 수조 실험을 통해 수중 다중경로 채널의 수면변동과 지연확산이 텍스트 전송성능에 미치는 영향 확인하였다. 수면변동과 지연확산은 채널의 코히어런스 대역폭을 제한하는 요인으로 수중음향 통신의 전송성능을 제한한다. 잔잔한 수면과 교란하는 수면에 따른 응답특성 실험결과에서 수면 반사파의 진폭변동과 지연확산 특성을 확인하였다. 각각의 지연확산 유효치는 각각 5ms, 4ms로 그에 대응하는 코히어런스 대역폭은 200Hz, 250Hz였다. BFSK (Binary Frequency Shift Keying) 방식을 이용한 수중 텍스트 전송성능에서 지연확산에 따른 채널의 코히어런스 대역폭 제한으로 인해 잔잔한 수면인 경우 200bps이하에서 $10^{-4}$, 교란하는 수면인 경우 250bps 이하에서 $10^{-4}$으로 오류율이 나타났다. 따라서 본 실험을 통해 수중 다중경로 채널에서 수면변동에 의한 코히어런스 대역폭 제한용 수중음향 통신의 전송성능을 결정하는 중요한 요인임을 확인하였다.

To investigate the effect of Corni Fructus(CF) water extracts on the relaxation of the corpus cavernosum, organ bath studies, histochemical and immunohistochemical methods were used and obtained the following results. In the organ bath study, the maximal contraction of the corpus cavernosum tissue by PE showed a significant relaxation effect at $3.0mg/m{\ell}$ of CF water extract. When ${\text\tiny{L}}$-NNA was pretreated corpuscular relaxation effect of CF water extract was significantly inhibited compared without ${\text\tiny{L}}$-NNA pretreatment. In $Ca^{2+}$-free solution, the increase of contraction due to $Ca^{2+}$ influx significantly inhibited in the pretreatment compared with no pretreatment of CF water extract. Histochemical and immunohistochemical studies showed that the ratio of smooth muscle to collagen fiber was increased in the CF group compared to the PE group in the corpus cavernosum, and the eNOS positive reaction increased and the PDE5 positive reaction decreased. These results suggest that CF extract has increased NO production through activation of eNOS and inhibited the action of PDE5 to block the extracellular $Ca^{2+}$ influx, thereby relaxing the smooth muscle of the corpus cavernosum.

To evaluate characteristics of water quality in Jeju, a study was implemented for Han stream and retention ponds. Inflow water quality of retention ponds was heavily dependent on precedent rainfall, and no pesticide was detected due to the little artificial pollution sources. A smooth settling efficiency curve was noticed because heavy particles were already settled down in front of the retention pond. There were weak relationships between retention time and water quality, and this can be attributable to high concentration of pollutants influx at peak inflow. In addition, as Han stream retention pond has a role of groundwater recharge, inflow control based on water quality as well as quantity is needed to maximize pollutant removal at the retention ponds.

난류의 내부 영역의 유속은 단순한 공식으로 표현하기 매우 어려운 형태를 가지고 있다. 이 속도 분포를 기술하는 여러 가지 공식들이 제안된 바 있지만, 모든 공식들은 많은 항들을 가지거나 적분형 또는 음함수꼴을 가지고 있다. 이것은 이 식들이 적용하기 힘들거나, 매개 변수들을 추정하기 어렵다는 것을 의미한다. 이 연구에서는 매끄러운 바닥 위를 흐르는 난류 내부 영역의 유속 분포를 표현할 수 있는 간단한 형태의 새로운 공식을 제안하였다. 이 공식은 전통적인 대수 법칙에 감쇄 함수를 곱한 형태이다. 단 하나의 추가적인 매개 변수를 도입하여, 전체 내부 영역의 유속 분포를 적절하게 표현할 수 있었다. 이 공식은 벽법칙이 성립하는 바닥 근처의 유속과 대수 법칙이 성립되는 중복 영역의 유속 분포까지를 적절하게 나타낼 수 있다. 또한, 추가된 매개 변수인 감쇄 계수는 쉽게 추정할 수 있다. 이 변수는 Reynolds 수의 변화에 민감하지 않으며, 공식에 의하여 계산된 유속 분포도 또한 이 매개 변수의 변화에 대해서 민감하지 않다.

Recently we reported that water extracts of Coptidis Rhizomas showed calcium antagonistic action and alpha-adrenoceptor inhibitory action in the vascular smooth muscle. Since ca lcium antagonistic properties are important in the treatment of various diseases including asthma. In the present study, the bronchodilatory effects of crude extract of three kinds of Coptidis Rhizoma (Coptidis chinensis, Coptis japonica and root hair of Coptis japonica) was investigated using rat isolated trachea. The result showed that all extracts relaxed carbachol-contracted tracheal smooth muscle. Concentration-dependently, in which the root hair of Coptis japonica was the least potent. The inhibitory potency expressed in terms of $IC_{50}$ against carbachol contraction was 1.8${\mu}$g/ml and 2.7${\mu}$g/ml for Coptidis chinensis and Coptis japonica, respectively. These extracts also inhibited KCI-contracted tracheal smooth muscle. But the relative potency ($IC_{50}$) was 3.5 and 4.1 folds weaker than carbachol-induced contraction for Coptidics chinenesis and Coptis japonica, respectively. Pretreatment of crude extracts also inhibited carbachol- or KCI-induced contraction, non-competitively. These findings indicate that the extracts have muscarinic blocking as well as $Ca^{2+}$ channel blocking action. When provoked intracellular stored $Ca^{2+}$ release by carbachol in $Ca^{2+}$-free conditions, initial phasic contraction due to $Ca^{2+}$ release was significantly inhibited by the extracts. As taken together, we conclude that water extracts of Coptidis Rhizoma may be beneficial in bronchospasm or other broncheal tube narrowing conditions such as asthma.

Olibanum (Boswellia serrata) has been shown to have anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic and anticancer effects. This study determined the role of a water extract of olibanum in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-stimulated proliferation and migration of rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RASMCs). PDGF-BB induced the migration and proliferation of RASMCs that were inhibited by olibanum extract in a dose-dependent manner. The PDGF-BB-increased phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK); the heat shock protein (Hsp) 27 was significantly inhibited by the olibanum extract. The effects of PDGF-BB-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 was not altered by the olibanum extract. Treatment with olibanum extract inhibited PDGF-BB-stimulated sprout out growth of aortic rings. These results suggest that the water extract of olibanum inhibits PDGF-BB-stimulated migration and proliferation in RASMCs as well as sprout out growth, which may be mediated by the inhibition of the p38 MAPK and Hsp27 pathways.

Anemarrhenae Rhizoma has been clinically used as a sedative drug in oriental medicine. We observed the sedative action and effect on the movement of isolated-ileum with each water extract of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma (F-I), saline solution treated preparation (F-II) and 25% ethanol treated preparation (F-III). The results obtained were summerized as follows; 1) Sedative actions were recognized with F-I, F-II and F-III. 2) Prolonged effect of sleeping time was recognized significantly with F-I, F-II and F-III. 3) Each fraction of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma showed the released action on the isolated-ileum of the mouse, rat, rabbit and guinea pig, and antagonic action against contraction induced by acetylcholine, barium chloride and histamine. Thus the mechanism in the released action of the smooth muscle was partly considered as the direct dependence of the smooth muscle.

Composite resins, commonly used in clinical practice, have been developed to improve aesthetics to obtain smooth surfaces. Although the restored composite resin has a smooth surface, it gradually becomes rough over time. Therefore, this study measured glossiness to evaluate the surface of various composite resins and attempted to evaluate the maintenance of glossiness of composite resins by observing surfaces that change to roughness. Specimens were produced using resin used in clinical practice: Gradia direct anterior (GA), Tetric N-Ceram (TN), Ceram.X Sphere TEC one (CX), Filtek Z350XT (FT), Estelite sigma quick (ES). After creating a smooth surface with slide glass, five locations were randomly selected to measure surface gloss, and the average was the representative value of the specimen. Roughness was applied to the specimen under water pouring at the same speed and pressure using SiC paper #2400, 1200, and 400. The gloss unit of different SiC papers was measured. To evaluate the gloss unit and gloss retention between composite resins, one-way analysis of variance and Tukey multiple comparisons test were used. As a result of the study, there was a difference in gloss unit of specimens produced under the same conditions. Although the degree differed depending on the composite resin, there was also a difference in gloss retention. Based on the findings, composite resins show differences in gloss due to their different characteristics. Ceram.X Sphere TEC one (CX) showing the lowest gloss retention and Estelite sigma quick (ES) showing the highest.

CT 영상은 커널의 종류와 재구성 방법에 따라 다양하게 나타나며, 관심 영역의 CT감약계수 및 노이즈는 정밀도에 영향을 준다. 커널의 종류에 따른 노이즈, 공간분해능 및 MTF를 측정하여 영상을 평가하였다. 다중채널CT 스캐너를 이용하여 팬텀 및 복부를 스캔 하였고, 커널은 B10(very smooth), B20(smooth), B30(medium smooth), B40(medium), B50(medium sharp), B60(sharp), B70(very sharp), B80(ultra sharp)으로 재구성하여 물, 공기, 간의 실질 조직, 근육, 지방 부위를 ROI 기능을 이용하여 평균의 CT감약계수와 표준편차인 노이즈를 정량적으로 측정하여 영상을 비교하였다. 그 결과CT 감약계수는 물($1.1{\sim}1.8\;HU$), 공기($-998{\sim}-1,000\;HU$)이고, 물에서의 노이즈($5.4{\sim}44.8\;HU$), 공기($3.6{\sim}31.4\;HU$)이다. 인체에서 간 실질 조직과 지방, 근육의 CT 감약계수와 노이즈를 커널에 따라 측정하였다. 지방의 CT 감약계수($-2.2{\sim}0.8\;HU$), 간의 실질 조직에서 CT감약계수($60.4{\sim}62.2\;HU$), 노이즈($7.6{\sim}63.8\;HU$), 근육의 CT감약계수($53.3{\sim}54.3\;HU$), 노이즈($10.4{\sim}70.7\;HU$) 사이에서 분포하였고, 커널이 높아질수록 노이즈도 증가하였다. 영상의 질을 높이기 위해서는 검사부위에 따라 노이즈를 감소하기 위해 적절한 커널을 선택하여 CT 검사를 하여야 한다.
